PERIODS

Women have such an incredible tool by having their monthly cycle. This is in my practice I support women in understanding their cycles to have a better idea of what is going on-

Our cycles are a good insight to what is going on in our
health.

Here are some of the most common patterns I see in a
women's health and what they typically mean:⬇️

Spotting: This is usually a sign of Low progesterone or Iron overload. Focus should be on managing stress, blood sugar, eating enough and mineral deficiencies. This will not only move iron appropriately to help balance inflammation and hormones but also support our thyroid that plays a role in progesterone production. Additionally, managing stress and blood sugar/ eating enough is crucial for our body to utilize progesterone and make progesterone!

Heaving Bleeding/ Cramping. Imbalance of Estrogen to
Progesterone. Focus on foods that are nourishing to the liver and support estrogen detox, mineral imbalances and pooping daily. The liver helps remove excess estrogen from the body as well as other wastes. Things that support the liver would be castor oil packs, beets or even teas like dandelion root. Focus on nourishing foods. Foods high in hydrogenated oils will increase inflammation and impacts our cycle negatively. Staying well hydrated with mineral rich water and fibrous foods like raw carrot salad will help you poop and eliminate toxins and estrogen.

Late Period: Body is experiencing stress and delayed ovulation. It's important to remember that your cycle is impacted by the last month's stressors as well. Looking at food stressors, travel, under eating, over exercising etc. that could have impacted your cycle being late.

Bleeding Less than 5 days. Focus should be on managing stress, blood sugar, eating enough and mineral deficiencies. All of these can impact progesterone levels and the balance between estrogen and progesterone which can contribute to a less than ideal period bleed.

Is your menstrual cycle length healthy or is there delayed ovulation?

Longer cycles= delayed ovulation! 

Meaning there is some sort of stressor to your body that is inhabiting ovulation. 

Stressors could be:

Pituitary dysfunction 
Over exercising
Emotional stress
being underweight 
MOLD exposure
